Request: Easy way to duplicate whole stacks

Permalink 1 user found helpful
I'd love to see a "copy" option in the Stacks admin view.

The use case would be a designer (like me) who is using stacks to condense multiple functional blocks (e.g., forms with applied permissions) into a single space.

Currently, there seems to be no way to duplicate stacks or even paste clipboard blocks into stacks. This makes for a whole heap of window-switching, manual cut-n-pasting, and permissions applying just to get one stack that's just like another, except for a couple of words. A way to copy a stack, similar to the way one can copy pages, could save hours.

I've written a blog post about how you'd duplicate a stack if you have access to the database:http://www.adrikodde.nl/blog/2013/how-duplicate-concrete5-stack/...

I know it's not optimal from a designers point of view, but until this functionality isn't in the core nor provided in an add-on, it will do.
